PROJECT 1- SKETCH JOURNAL
20th June 2017
We are required to generate in-depth precedent analyses that include the accounts listed below:
1. With reference to a historical timeline of an ‘influencing (or contrasting) era’ of historical architecture, generate a comparative analysis of the contemporary Malaysian example vis-à- vis the identified ‘historical era’.
2. With reference to the era in question, critically analyse the contemporary Malaysian example for its differences and similarities compared to the ‘historical model’. Assess the positive and negative aspects of the modern example versus that of the ‘historical model’.
3. Keep a hand-written & hand-sketched record of our findings in an A4 ring-binder.
